Former World Champion of the Floridian surfer

I would like to talk about Former World Champion of the Floridian Surfer named Kelly Slater. I think, he may be his last ASP tour this year or next year Bcs He is strugging to get his 7th World Champion for two years in a row. He was world Champion during 1992, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998. He decided to retired in 1998. Then he got back for into the ASP tour in 2002. He got finishing for Second place in 2003 then again he got finishing for fifth place in 2004. Now, he is current 12th place in ASP tour. I know some of his families background. Kelly's aunt lives in Jacksonville, Florida. Her name is Nancy Locker, who was retired professional at Ohio university. Right now, She is helping/working for Disablities Service at University of North Florida in Jacksonville, Florida. I also am friend Kelly's oldest brother named Sean Slater. I met him couple of times and shaped the surfboard for me once. On Jan 2005, My friend and I went to see WQS surfing tour at Sebastian Inlet. I saw Kelly's mom named Judy Slater, who was helping for non-profits organize as a surfing contest. I talked his mom about Nancy Locker and Matt Keleton.
